You do not use the decomp stuff with the new cam. all u reuse is the stock flange.

As far as the spacer lugs on the cam to line up the sprocket if you look at the new cam there is a dot on the end of it that indicates where the wider spline is on the cam. So just line it up with the wide spot in the sprocket flange and press it on.:) And you do not need to use any of the stock decompressioner parts. Make sure you take the spring and ball bearing out of the little hole in the head:D

To press it on just freeze the cam in a freezer bag over night, then when you go to press it, just heat up the flange and press the cam in real quick and you wont even need a press. Worked good for me.

Yes we are in the South West of Africa Just to left top Bordering
South Africa,Have a look on the World map.We have Some of the Highest dunes in the world,But most of it is Either Diamond Concession or Nature Reserve,that Still Leaves us with about 600Square miles of Riding area which is slowly decreasing Because of envirmental awareness.

Well it should not be to expensive for you guys,you get 10Nam$
for US$1 so come on over and visit.You can riding for easy 3HRS at a time and not hit your or anybody elses track,but caution is advised as these buggers can bite you faster than you know.
especially over noon when dune blindness sets in.Oh and there is about 150 miles of beach to ride on!!!!plus a couple of thousand
square miles of dessert see Namibia is about two/thirds Desert or semi desert. Just ask wes miller How much it cost him to visit?
